  • Title: A biopolymer by any other name would bind as well: a comparison of the ligand-binding pockets of nucleic acids and proteins.
    Author: Marshall KA, Robertson MP, Ellington AD.
    Journal: Structure; 1997 Jun 15; 5(6):729-34. PubMed ID: 9261068.
    Abstract:
    Crystal structures have recently been reported for several in vitro selected aptamers that bind small molecules. A structural comparison of these aptamers with proteins that bind identical ligands reveals similar strategies for forming ligand-binding pockets.
